PSU has established the Division of Online & Continuing Studies (DOCS) specifically for adult students, particularly those who want or need to take some or most of their classes in evening or online formats. DOCS caters to adult students through personalized advising, support and direction from admission through graduation. Students admitted to PSU through DOCS have priority for online and evening course sections. If you want to be admitted to PSU through the Division of Online & Continuing Studies you can apply for admission online.
